Me too me too! I'd go to the library and return my books, then take out three or four new ones and one or two I'd already read and loved. Part of what was so exciting at the library -- even though mine was a tiny branch like yours -- was the headiness of choice. When I got a book for a gift that was great, but it was *that* book. At the library I could pick this one... or that one... or the other one... and *I* got to decide.
Wow, I'm jealous of your memory of reading your first word! So cool! And go BOOKS!!!

OMG. Libraries. They're the BEST.
I’d love to read your story of books! Had no idea you were still such a stalwart library user.
